Chido Obi Footballer

Arsenal's young talent, Chido Martin Obi, showcased his scoring prowess with an impressive performance for the club's under-18 side. The 16-year-old forward made headlines by scoring seven goals in Arsenal's dominant 9-0 victory over Norwich City.

Martin Obi's remarkable feat included a stunning display in the first half, where he netted five goals. His two quick hat-tricks within the first 17 minutes of the game set the tone for his exceptional performance. The young striker continued his scoring spree after the break, adding two more goals to his tally.

This recent achievement adds to Martin Obi's impressive goal-scoring record, with 24 goals in his last seven games. Notably, the Danish forward had previously scored 10 goals in a single match for Arsenal's U16s in a commanding 14-3 victory over Liverpool in November.

Arsenal's victory over Norwich City places them third in the U18 Premier League South, trailing leaders Chelsea by seven points with a game in hand. West Ham United currently occupies the second spot in the league standings.

In a significant development, Elite Project Group, the agency representing Arsenal star Bukayo Saka, has added Martin Obi to its roster of athletes. The talented young player, who has a Nigerian father and a Danish mother, has showcased his skills on the international stage by representing both Denmark and England at youth level.
